Came back from my business trip. Plant bushed our tremendously. A little damage on leaf from calcium deficiency. Will do gentle lollipoping as the week goes. Slight defoliation on the center area too.

Last round of major supercropping before I go on vacation for a week.

Changed rez again. Now I use RO water at 0.03 EC to start. I add CaNO3 then MgSO4 to a total of 0.4 EC, then fill up the rest with nutes to total of 1.9 EC. Still continuing to fill up the tent

Scrog net makes everything so easy. Just tuck and weave. This whole round of LST took less than 10 minutes. Plant looks like it got trampled by elephants. But 12 hours later, as if nothing happened. Nuts.

Another round of LST and a few supercropping here and there

Scrog net is up! I also supercropped the 8 colas to kick off the training

It has bushed out tremendously.

Plant is bushing up, and relatively happy. Preflower is out, and sex is girl!

Plant is doing alright. 8 new tops are developing very nicely.

6 years ago

8 new growth sites confirmed. Everything is going fine. Lowered light from 3 ft to 2-1/2 ft. Rez change @ 3ml/L (increase from 2.5 ml/L

6 years ago

The plant has recovered from the LST with the growth tips looking up. So I proceed to top the 4 colas, as well as pluck out all but the 8 growth sites at the top.

Plant has recovered well. Cut off the four damaged fan leaves and LST’d the 4 main colas

Nothing done today. More yellowing along the leaf edge.

Changed my mind and topped instead, since the bud sites at the bottom are already developing nicely. Changed rez because I got a new pH meter. Base is 0.4 EC. 0.95 EC nutes, 0.1 EC Cal-Mag, 0.05 EC pH and humic acid. End result is 1.5 EC (750ppm), with pH of 5.7.

Another Rez change yesterday. I realized it is having cal/mag deficiency due to the low pH. I recalibrated my pH meter and sure enough it was reading higher than its supposed to be. Rez is now at 6.1 pH, with a sprinkle of cal/mag supplement.

Changed Rez again because lower leaves are browning from the edge-in. Plain water 0.3 EC. 8mL each of A & B in 3 liter solution, resulting in 1.6 EC (1.3 EC increase). pH’d to 5.6. Added a pinch of Epsom salt, as well as humid acid.

Just got back from a 5-day trip, to see the kids plant is alright. EC still at 1.8, while pH has drifted to 6.3. That is to be expected though. It seems there were some nute burns but it powered through and is doing alright now. Rez change at the same PPM level. The water itself is 0.3 EC. The nutes brings it up to 1.2 EC. I might have added too much epsom salt, because it went up to 1.8 EC. Humid acid only increased it very little afterwards. FIM’d the little guy at the 5th&6th node. If everything goes well, we will end up with 6 colas. I plan to then top each of the 6 to produce 12 colas. The SCROG net will be put on at that point.

First set of leaves dying. This happens often to me; but I still don’t know why. Still wait and see for now. Will increase nute concentration to ~1.8 EC tomorrow, as I am leaving for travel.

1st set of leaves dropping. Is it okay? I can’t really tell. EC still at 0.8, pH 6.1.

6 years ago

2nd set of true leaves developing nicely. Noticed slight tip yellowing. Take no action, other than adding humid acid in rez to prevent algae.

6 years ago

First set of leaves developed nicely. Took off humidity dome, installed in DWC rig. Continue using low wattage CFL. Nute at 20% strength, 0.8 EC

Seedling popped up from rockwool and hydroton.
